Try it out now and get ready for the upcoming stable release

  • Use composer self-update --preview to try the latest alpha/prerelease version (2.x).
  • Use composer self-update --snapshot to try the latest dev build (2.x).
  • Use composer self-update --stable to go back to stable releases (1.x for now).
  • Use composer self-update --1 in CI/scripts if you want to pin Composer to 1.x until you are ready to migrate, this will ensure you stay on 1.x releases even once a 2.0 stable comes out.
